Yandong Road, Kaizhou.
Several soldiers got off their horses and walked into the mansion of Marshal Yandong Road.
"Commander, the people are here."
Bai Qi looked back and said, "Okay, you go down first."
The person who was left in Nuange made a military salute and said: "I have met the commander-in-chief. The last general, Wang Xuance, was transferred to Yandong Road under the command of Commander-in-Chief Meng of the Jiangdong Navy. I came today to pay homage and report on my duties."
"Sit down, as is customary in the military, I still have to ask some questions, so don't pay attention."
Bai Qi waved his hand and asked, "How old are you?"
"Twenty and three."
"You are still very young. I heard that you are the number one scholar in martial arts?"
Wang Xuance replied: "I am not talented. I passed the martial arts examination in the 29th year of Zhenyuan. Ende was appointed by His Highness as the number one scholar in the martial arts examination."
"Since he has been appointed by His Highness, he must be someone with great talent. Have you read military science?"
"Read it."
"Then what do you think of the current situation in Yandong?"
"Yandong was finally recovered because of the remnants of traitors like Dorgon. The people here are unstable."
"The first priority is to appease people's hearts, and the second is to open up wasteland for farmland."
"Your Highness has said that this place can be Beidacang."
"When the general comes, he will see an endless plain of black soil."
"If a large area of land is cleared, wheat can be planted this year and there will be a bumper harvest next year."
"To reassure the people with a good harvest."
"Only when the common people have enough food can they trust the government of Daqian. The government has established prestige. Only with prestige can the people of Yandong be obedient."
Bai Qi said: "Yes, what you said is also the general direction that His Highness and the important ministers in the court will discuss together."
"However, once the general direction is set, someone still needs to implement it in order for the national policy to be implemented."
"You go to Huanglong Mansion."
Wang Xuance immediately stood up and bowed: "Here."
He can be regarded as a young talent, and he can be regarded as a young calf who is not afraid of tigers, that is, the kind of angry young man.
Full of vigor and vitality, but also somewhat arrogant.
Xiao Yi knew who this person was after seeing the name.
One person destroys a country.
The ability is there.
High IQ.
He is a very good diplomatic talent.
Well used.
It can definitely bring unexpected results.
…
In the thirty-first year of Zhenyuan, June 26th.
War drums roared along the coast of the South China Sea.
"Go to war!"
Following the shouts, warships left Qiongzhou Port one after another.
Xiao Zheng stood at the bow of the boat, looking back at the team coming to see him off on the shore, as if he had some realization.
Only now did he understand some of his elder brother's intentions, and he increasingly admired his foresight.
There was indeed a very powerful Roman Empire in the West, as well as major countries such as Persia and Tianzhu.
And with the voyage of the Daqian caravan.
Many pirates appeared and targeted Daqian's merchant ships.
Not long ago.
Their merchant ship was robbed.
There were more than 360 ships in the group, including more than 20 ships from the Daqian Navy escorting the naval team.
Unexpectedly, there are many pirate ships.
This time the voyage caravan was robbed.
No one survived.
This is the first time Daqian has encountered such a situation.
It's a big deal.
The impact is far-reaching.
If it cannot be resolved, Dagan Maritime may lose its largest commercial channels in the southwest and west in the future.
The June sun is like fire.
After sailing for more than ten days, the sergeants and soldiers were talking more and more.
"I heard that those pirates are all very tall, and some of them have blonde or white hair?"
——
"What's this? There's someone with blue eyes!"
———
"Blue eyes are nothing. I also saw some people whose skin was all black. Only their fingernails were the same as ours. At night, they can only see people if they show their teeth. It's too dark."
——
"I heard that the last time a few thousand people went on a voyage, they were robbed by pirates and no one came back. We are going to destroy them today."
…
"Well, it was said in the Di newspaper that if you hit him with one punch, you won't get hit by hundreds of punches."
"Pirates are terrible."
"We should destroy them so that the Daqian caravan can sail away and come back with gold and silver treasures."
"Daqian can prosper because there are more and more maritime merchants, and everyone has begun to make voyages to make money."
"There will be fewer and fewer people oppressing the people."
——
"Only the current Crown Prince, His Royal Highness, is so heroic and wise and virtuous. He governs the country according to the law and rectifies corrupt officials. This is unprecedented."
“Without His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, we would not be where we are today!”
The soldiers were talking a lot.
This was actually the first real naval battle of the Daqian Navy.
Xiao Zheng takes the lead.
The deputy commanders are Meng Tian, Di Qing and others.
The largest warship is a five-story building.
It uses both steam engine power and manual paddle power.
high speed.
At the same time, it was also equipped with eight large cannons.
Very powerful.
There are three such warships in total.
The smallest one is also a sailing ship, a large sailing ship that can carry two hundred people.
Since it is the first battle of the Daqian Navy.
Naturally, you have to make a name for yourself.
Let Western countries take a look at how powerful Daqian's military strength is.
Let them never dare to covet Daqian's merchant ships from now on.
From now on, I will treat Daqian merchants with utmost respect!
"boom!"
There was a loud bang.
"boom!"
"boom!"
One by one, the pirate ships were shattered by gunfire.
The pirates were frightened and fell to the ground, shouting.
"God!"
"Oh God, please save us!"
"Heavenly punishment is coming!"
"Dagan people control heavenly punishment!"
"Run!"
"I surrender, I admit defeat. I am willing to become the most loyal knight of Daqian and never betray in this life."
"Lord, please spare my life!"
The pirates heard the news and thousands of pirate ships rushed over.
The Daqian Navy fought a battle with the pirates on the West Sea in the Strait of Malacca that shocked the entire Western countries.
Just one battle.
Since then, the pirates in the entire West Sea have suffered countless casualties and their vitality has been severely damaged.
As long as they see Daqian's flag, they will panic and run away.
When seeing a Dagan man, he would prostrate himself on the ground and obey the Lord.
This battle.
Daqian is famous all over the West.
Daqian became the most powerful country in the world.
The West is eager to understand Dongzhou Daqian, to obtain heavenly punishment, and to obtain the goods of Daqian people.
Even a small Rubik's Cube is respected as the most intelligent toy in the world.
It is a magical prescription created by wise men that contains the truth of the universe.
…
In August, the news returned to Chang'an.
Xiao Yi asked his secretary, Ouyang Xiu of the Di newspaper department, to start reporting the matter.
This is good news.
The people of the world should know about the great victory of Daqian in the West Sea.
Dagan people have stood on top of the world since then.
People with blond hair and blue eyes are nothing more than that.
The most noble one is my Da Ganren!
Xiao Yi is actually cultivating the national pride of the masses.
Let those Yi people who are also Dagan people increasingly recognize their identity as Dagan people.
